The transformation of the Austrian Empire into Austria-Hungary dates from the 'Ausgleich' (usually tranlated as 'Compromise') of 1867. In 1866 Austria suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of Prussia and was in effect expelled from Germany. There was a danger that the Hungarians, who had rebel…led in 1848-49, might again rise in rebellion against Habsburg rule. (That said, negotiations for some kind of autonomy for Hungary had been in progress before the war of 1866). This vast empire (the second largest state in Europe - after Russia) disintegrated in 1918. (MORE)

Clolonized? If you mean colonize answering your question needs a little explanation. Hungary is a European country. Throughout its 1000+ year history Hungary has been a regional and -as part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire- a Great power. It hasn't been colonized by anyone. It has been occupied at v…arious times but never colonized. Around 400AD the Hunnic empire made the Carpathian Basin their home base. See Attila. Part of that empire were the Hungarian (Magyar) tribes. This empire disintegrated. In the 9th century AD Magyar tribes arrived again and colonized the area once and for all, establishing a strong viable christian nation. When we talk about colonization we generally mean European powers colonizing less developed parts of the globe. See English or French or Spanish colonial empires colonizing the Americas Africa or SE Asia. (MORE)

Karst topography is a landscape shaped by the dissolution of a layer or layers of soluble bedrock, usually carbonate rock such as limestone or dolomite. [1] Due to subterranean drainage, there may be very limited surface water, even to the absence of all rivers and lakes. Many karst regions displa…y distinctive surface features, with sinkholes or dolines being the most common. However, distinctive karst surface features may be completely absent where the soluble rock is mantled, such as by glacial debris, or confined by a superimposed non-soluble rock strata. Some karst regions include thousands of caves, even though evidence of caves that are big enough for human exploration is not a required characteristic of karst. Various karst landforms have been found on all continents except Antarctica (see below: Notable karst areas). (MORE)

Hungary is a good choice for a character, as she is relativelysimple with many different possibilities. Firstly, decide on aversion of her character to cosplay. My sister does the versionwith the red skirt, but depending on what you have available, thegreen skirt or suit could be easier. As for her …hair, if your ownsuits, a little curling can make it perfect with little cost. Asfor wigs, there are some quality and cheap brown wigs on Amazon.For Hungary, do not go much lighter than a very dirty blonde. Justabout any sort of combat boots would work, but try to avoid heels,as they do not fit her character. Just about any dollar or craftstore sells silk flowers which can be glued to a wig, or pinned tonatural hair. Just about any simple green dress with a petticoatwould work. If it is an off shade, stained, patterned, etc, theapron will easily cover it or at least distract from it. At thispoint, the cosplay is complete. If you want to go the extra step,you can add props or contact lenses, but they are not completelynecessary. I hope this was helpful! (MORE)
